The Mets are a respectable 6-6 since the All-Star break after taking two of three from the Braves. These teams have played six times, the home team winning all six. Mets rookie Nolan McLean has electric stuff and a 1.50 ERA this month. While Miami's Eury Perez also has been brilliant lately, historically he has been much less effective on the road. The Marlins are 21-31 on the road. Over the past 15 days, the Mets own a .731 OPS compared to the Marlins' .673.
DraftKings. Despite struggling to garner strikeouts in his last start against the Padres, I’m going back to the well with Eury Perez tonight. He’s cleared this line in 12/17 full starts, and finds himself facing the Mets in a vulnerable spot. The Mets have a 26.5% K% over the last two weeks against righties, and they continue to struggle offensively (.706 OPS) with Juan Soto on the injured list.
